How much should you actually be paying in commission?

The 2026 State of Recruitment Commission Webinar answers the question agency owners debate constantly.

Our webinar provides the evidence behind the most important pay decision you make, drawn from live data of more than 300 recruitment agencies across 3 years.

There is a payout rate the strongest businesses tend to settle around, and a real distance between that and where most of the market sits. Which side of it you fall on shapes how you hire, what you can promise a new biller, and how much of a strong year actually reaches your bottom line.

Watch industry veterans and commission experts below to learn:

• Whether your scheme is built to attract top performers, protect your margin, or neither
• The threshold trend spreading across the industry, and how to judge if it is working against you
• How to design commission that rewards the behaviour you want rather than the billing you would get regardless
• A fast way to test whether your current scheme is actually doing its job
